    You really think so? Maybe it’s just nostalgia but I love the UT CGI. It’s so dope!

    Yep. I didn’t like the cg models or puppet animation of Cybertron.

    I think the models in the UT look pretty decent, but the actual animation itself is so freaking stiff and clunky. It sucks cause I've seen clips from Energon that were 2d animated and It looks gorgeous when they did that.

    I still think Beast Wars overall looks better though. And that can't be nostalgia talking cause I never even knew about it as a kid born in the year 2000. I just like that late 90s cgi look personally, though the backgrounds in the first season are a bit rough, and the anthropoids are awful looking.

    I see no issues.

    Fair enough. Definitely been a while since I’ve seen Energon/ cybertron so if I go back I’ll probably change my mind on the quality. But I don’t think I’ll ever not look at it and think “holy hell, that’s sick”, just an unbridled amount of joy I get from that art style.

    I’m a bit biased but I love the 2D artwork of Armada. I prefer it over the cg of its sequels.

    Oh yeah I just remember seeing an episode of Cybertron for the first and just being in awe of how cool it was. So I have a soft spot for that look. But I love Armada too!!!

    In his video about Kingdom Wave 4, he implied that he already had Road Ranger and Puffer, before they were officially revealed last week.
    It is no secret how has he gotten his figures

    Not at all.

    Here's a prime example:
    The Godzilla movies on Netflix.
    Watched them all.
    Who animated them?
    Polygon.
    The same company who did Prime.
    BW has better animation than those movies.

    No? I don't care for the designs, but it isn't better animated.

    You like Godzilla's art style. There is very little animation present. Cameras move around things. Mouths open and close. There's very little actual acting.

    Haven't seen any of these reviewers put Pipes/Puffer's guns in the hands behind the cab in alt mode. I wonder if there is enough space for the length of the guns to do that.

    If anyone needs a quick gut check on their own 90's-nostalgia-biases, friends I've shown BW stuff to say it reminds them of Xavier Renegade Angel's animation. Make of that what you will.
